zeus777 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I just created a new gig, and while I can use Facebook and other wonderful internet tools to promote it,I decided to also post it in the “My Fiverr gigs” category just for the heck of it.Posting your gigs there is not the best way to get exposure I think, but it is an option, a start.When I went there, I saw a lot of bump/up posts.I understand what those people are trying to do, they want their posts to be at the top so more people can see it. However seeing a looooooooooooooooooooooooong line of just “up” or “bump” doesn’t make youlook good. It makes you look pretty desperate, maybe even unprofessional. It can also be a bit unfair to the otherpeople posting their gigs there.Personally I think it would be better if you add a sample or some kind of a short message that is related to your gig,rather than just typing in that one little word.If you are offering a logo gig for example, draw a sample and add that to your thread.If you are offering writing gigs, maybe you can add a short story or something, to show people your skills.Depending on the gig, leaving a sample or a message related to the gig might be a bit hard, but I think it isworth putting in that extra time to come up with something. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fonthaunt Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Great tip!! It is also worth noting that although posts in My Fiverr Gigs get a lot of leeway, excessive bumping without any new/useful info can eventually get a post removed, closed, etc. The same thing applies when users try a category “takeover” by posting multiple threads in a short time.Used properly, though, occasionally a sale can come from posting there! I’ve recently favorited 2 gigs I saw there to keep in mind for my own purchases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
